Question
Can facial palsy patients eat pork rib soup?
Answer
Patients with facial palsy can drink pork rib soup during their illness, but it is recommended to consume light foods. This condition can be treated effectively with acupuncture. At the same time, it is advisable to supplement with B-group vitamins and other nutrients that nourish the nerves, control emotions, get adequate rest, and avoid overtime work. For peripheral facial neuritis, hospitalization is usually not required. Treatment mainly involves medication to reduce facial nerve edema, nourish the nerves, and perform chewing exercises. For central facial neuritis, hospitalization is typically necessary.
